Title: Buy a better charger with the watch
Review: The watch works great. Haven’t had any problem yet. Battery health is at 83% so no problems there. Only thing is when you buy this, make sure to order a good charger with it. The charger that comes with this refurbished watch are very cheap, takes forever to charge.

Title: Very happy and a great buy.
Review: Very happy with my renewed iWatch 7. Arrived in Like New condition and working like new. The sport band is nice and no need to buy additional bands unless wanting to dress up. The blue watch is great and looks even better than anticipated. This was a great buy. I think the Iwatch 7 still offers strong performance that will keep me happy for a long while. No need to get newer versions in my opinion.

Title: Overall Good
Review: Excellent quality still came with quite a few scratches. Charger works good and is compatible with the new AirPods wireless charging too. No glitches and battery life is pretty average.

Title: Charging cable has USB C end. You may need a USB C female to USB male adapter
Review: Update a few months later. I returned the watch after writing the previous review; no problems, so the vendor was fine. I purchased a new watch a non-Apple store. I had the same problem charging the new one. It simply would not charge with the charger that came in the new box, so the refurbished watch was probably as good as new. I purchased a travel charger at Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/NEWDERY-Cordless-Portable-Wireless-Magnetic/dp/B07ZFVYNRQ/ref=sr_1_24?crid=TEHVWGXQ16MK&keywords=apple%2Bwatch%2Bcharger&qid=1684866703&sprefix=apple%2Bwat%2Caps%2C328&sr=8-24&th=1 and it works most of the time. I’ve gone from outlet to outlet trying to get the watch to charge. It’s finally found a home in a lower bedroom socket with a USB C adapter.In general, the Apple watch is fairly convenenient for catching calls when the phone is in another room. There are lots of great watchbands available from 3rd-party vendors for a fraction of what the manufacturer charges for bands. I like that I have my own photos circulating on it. It does some weird things, like when I start my car it often tells me how long it will take to get somewhere random, or if not home, how long it will take to get home and what the traffic it like on the highway near home; not on the freeway I need to take to get to that highway.All-in-all, the watch is ok. There are still times when I put it on the charger at night and it’s dead when I take it off the next day. The Apple-provided charger doesn’t work at all. Not really impressed.Update to last week’s review: I received the USB adapter, charged the watch overnight and it didn’t start. Put it on a different outlet to charge. Didn’t start. Held both buttons down for over 10 seconds as recommended by support video. Never saw the apple or anything else, just a black screen. Returning watch as it was DOA.I’ll update the review numbers later. Just received the watch. I looks like new and came a few days earlier than expected. However, I won’t know whether it works or not for another week as the charging cable has a USB C end rather than a regular USB end. My Apple chargers and other USB chargers require the appx. 1/2″ rectangular USB end to go into the charger and the C end goes into the device. I had to order a USB C female to USB male adapter to charge the watch, and it’s supposed to arrive in six days. It actually says “USB C charger” in the write up, so I can’t fault the seller. I just hadn’t put it together that the C was the part that went into the charger; rather than the watch. I wanted to warn others to order an adapter; if you don’t have one; when ordering the watch so you won’t be disappointed having to wait for both the watch and then the adapter.

Title: Great condition!
Review: I bought this for my husband and he absolutely loves it. It works really well and we were able to install the new OS 26 update. The battery holds up perfectly and we have absolutely no complaints. This is an excellent buy for an Apple Watch!

Title: “Refurbished” watch shipped with “Battery needs service” worked for 4 hours and won’t charge now
Review: The refurbished Apple 7 watch looks nice, charged and paired ok after I charged it that first day. Used for one day, but the battery would only charge to 63% and says “battery needs service”. After one days use, the battery charger stopped working and won’t charge. Tried to unpair so I could return but the watch died before I could make sure it is unpaired. It won’t charge. The watch says “ Please charge the watch before continuing…” Either the charger that came with it is bad and/or the watch has issues. It does need a new battery for sure. Why did they sell a watch as refurbished that says “battery needs service”? Contacted Apple support and they did a diagnostic and said I need to take it in for service, most likely battery. So I didn’t buy a refurbished watch, but a used watch that wasn’t tested. Now I have to buy a new charger to try, or take it in to Apple service to make sure it can recharge enough to finish the unpair. Wish I didn’t buy this watch. I purchased the protection plan so I can file a claim with them but didn’t expect so much hassle. I thought refurbished meant someone tested it, replaced the bad battery, stuff like that. Refurbished should mean it passed a series of tests such as can it charge with the shipped charger and make sure the watch doesn’t say battery needs service. I’ll either return it or file a claim. Too bad because I liked the watch for the few hours I was able to use it.Update: Found out from Asurion, who denied my claim, said that because I can still return the watch to Amazon they don’t cover any problems. So if you get the Asurion 2-year protection plan please note that it does not cover anything until the watch that doesn’t work is past the return date. You can’t fix it yourself and hope to be reimbursed, if the watch is still within the return to Amazon time period. Just be aware because I assumed Asurion would pay to have the faulty watch I received fixed, but they said it’s the seller’s responsibility first, so a return is the only option.Another Update: I successfully canceled the apple repair I began with apple and was refunded for the battery repair fee. Then I started the returned for the watch on amazon. The only way Amazon allows the return is to have UPS pick up the watch from your house. If you are gone to work for the 3 pickups, then your return will be cancelled, so if you can’t stay home and wait by the door for UPS, then you are out of luck returning an apple watch purchased on Amazon. I called Amazon support to request a different return method, and they said, that is the only return method, but they would specify to UPS to leave the return label if I’m not home. Turns out UPS received two return label orders for the same watch return from Amazon. Luckily (i guess) I was home sick from work that day, and was able to return with the UPS person with one return label. The UPS person said they would not have left the label if I wasn’t home. Even though my item was picked up by UPS, they dutifully came back 2 more times with the other duplicate return label until that label became cancelled. Luckily Amazon received the apple watch with one of the labels. (Make sure to print out and include the amazon return info in the box because who knows what mistakes are made an Amazon with 2 UPS return labels being assigned to one watch return). Once Amazon received the faulty watch in their hands, the return was issued, and I was refunded. The process was not fun. I called amazon support about 5 times, and apple support about 6 times during the process, and all the Assurion support forms. I went to costco and bought a new Apple watch there and picked it up at the store which is what I should have done in the first place. I wouldn’t recommend buying an Apple watch on Amazon. Try anywhere else!!! From Amazon I received a “reburbished” watch where the setting on the watch said “Battery needs repair” so it wasn’t tested first. Also the watch charger was defective so it wasn’t tested either. The only item that worked was the watch band. Not fun! Run!!!

Review: I was a bit nervous about purchasing a renewed product, but you can’t beat the price and fast delivery. Where I live, there are no Apple stores. Amazon is my go to store for most of the purchases. HOwever this is the 1st time I have ordered an expensive watch without trying it on or from the Apple store. It did take a while to get the software update for both our phone and the Apple Watch and pair the watch, install some apps, once it is done, your watch is ready to go.it does not feel like a refurbished or renewed one. it looks like a brand-new one. you do need to buy a USBc wall charger to charge the watch. other than that, I am very happy with the purchase and the money saved.

Review: Arrived very quickly and in “excellent” refurbished condition. No scratches or scrapes on the face, trim or sensors. The battery is at 85% health, but that fits AZN’s “excellent” condition criteria. Besides, I’ll be charging it every night anyway. The watch band is not original, but I prefer it as I think it is more secure than Apple’s band. The charger is not a “fast-charge” (20W) charger, but works fine if you’re not wearing it to bed to monitor your sleep.Nice Apple Watch for the price!

Review: El reloj está en perfectas condiciones, podría decir incluso que parece nuevo, con excepción de algunos pequeños detalles prácticamente imperceptibles. Estéticamente está al 100 y el porcentaje de batería es el 93%, bastante bien, la verdad, considerando el precio. Aunado a ello, llegó en un par de días, según lo establecido cuando realicé la compra. Recomendado totalmente.

Review: Ordered the excellent refurbished one; however, when it arrived, the screen had lots of noticeable scratches, came with a charger that wouldn’t work unless you had it at a certain angle, a very cheap band, and the crown on the side was difficult to press and sounded very wrong. The ECG app wasn’t able to detect my finger and couldn’t get a reading. I also just realized after writing this that the battery health isn’t even 80% of its original capacity.
